The Renaissance by Alison Brown
First published in 1988, Alison Brown's The Renaissance soon established itself as one of the most popular and useful books on this complex topic. For this expanded Second Edition the author has rewritten the text entirely in the light of the wealth of literature published over the past decade. It contains two new chapters, one on the rise of lordships and the impact of the Black Death and one on Renaissance theatre. As ever, the main focus of the book is on the influence of classical ideas on Italy, and although Florence is still central to the book its uniqueness is now viewed more critically.Smriti Prasadam-Halls and Alison Brown are the author-illustrator team behind the bestselling picture books I Love You Night and Day and I'll Never Let You Go.
Smriti Prasadam-Halls is a former children's books editor. She is the author of Kiss it Better, illustrated by Sarah Massini, as well as several other picture and novelty books. She lives in England with her husband and three sons.
Alison Brown studied Fine Art at Liverpool and then became a graphic designer. She is also the illustrator of Tony Mitton's Snowy Bear and Mark Sperring's I'll Love You Always. Alison lives in the United Kingdom.
